[STATEMENT REGARDING THE EXTRADITION LAW AMENDMENT]

Dear CKY community,

Two of our former extended committee members, Keith Cheung and Brayden Pun, has initiated this statement for alumni, students and staff of CKY to voice our opposition against the amendment of the Extradition Law. After a brief discussion, the five core members of Yau's Hub has unanimously agreed to support this act as a collective. Whilst we fought for the quality of student life within CKY, we believe that it is equally important for us to have a society that fairly protects the rights of its citizens, an integral part to our quality of life. We firmly believe that the forceful amendment of the Extradition Law will harm the integrity of our rule of law, and more detrimentally show that the SAR government can blatantly disregard public opinion in favour of the interests of Beijing. Therefore, we hope you can all join us in voicing out, in defence of the city we all care about.

Of course, also join the march on 9th June.

Yours sincerely,
Yau's Hub

親愛的蔡繼有大家庭，

有俠兩位前 extended committee 成員剛發起了一項聯署，讓蔡繼有的師生和校友表達反對政府修訂《逃犯條例》的立場。經商議後，有俠五位核心成員決定以有俠名義支持是次聯署。我們認為對公民權利的保障是維持社會生活質素的重要一環，值得捍衛。這正如有俠在位期間對提升校園生活質素的堅持。《逃犯條例》修訂若然通過，將對香港的法治將造成嚴重損害。更甚者，它將顯示特區政府為了符合中央政府的意願，能夠任意漠視民意。因此，我們希望各位可以參與此項聯署，守護我城。

當然，六月九號記得上街。

有俠謹啟

[OUR LAST OFFICIAL STATEMENT]

Dear CKY community,

At this point in time, Yau's Hub no longer bears the official status as the cabinet of CKY's Student Society. Our year-long journey has finally come to an end. We would like to utilise this moment to make a reflection on our term and express some feelings the five of us share.

First and foremost, we would like to congratulate CKY Ohana 蔡。回家 on their election to be our successor as the CKY Student Society cabinet. We understand that having the courage to register in an election and be able enough to win it is a difficult process, which makes your victory nothing short of extraordinary. We have faith in you and hope that you can surpass our achievements to build a more vibrant atmosphere in the student body. We will be there to share with you the needed experience when the occasion requires, although we are confident you can build an enduring legacy for yourselves.

We would also like to thanks our three dedicates teachers in charge - Mr James Kuan, Ms Jennifer Chung and Ms Sabrina Tang - for helping and supporting us throughout the way. You have gone out of their way to ensure a successful ex*****on of our projects, standing with us to tackle school bureaucracy. Throughout the year, we genuinely felt that you care about the society as much as we do. We will treasure the struggles and discussions we had over how to run a certain event.

To our dear extended committee, we apologise for not giving sufficient recognition for your work over the past year. You responded to our call for extra students to assist the running of the society, and have given key contributions in multiple areas. Working not for your CV but only for the benefit of the society, we would not be able to accomplish what we did without you.

Finally, to the students of CKY. We thank you for the tremendous support for our different events and hope that you continue this support to the new cabinet. We may have promised you many things at the campaign which never materialised, but we would like to assure you that every effort has been tried by us to deliver as much as we could given multiple constraints from the school and also the practical limits of the society.

Many issues we saw in the school that prompted the beginning of this campaign remain unsolved. Whilst CKY gains more and more reputation as a great school, we must admit it is far from perfect. To solve the problem in its entirety is far beyond a student's reach, but what we can do is to improve the atmosphere in the campus for students to live a fulfilling campus life. We regret to see many students withdrawing themselves from an active campus life, consider school life as only attending all necessary lessons from 8-4. Our school teams are given far too little recognition for what they do, our students feel discouraged to start initiatives on their own, our school not making many of us feel proud. This is not fully the fault of the students, but we hope to leave a legacy where the students of CKY feel unembarrassed to say they love their school and want to contribute to a better campus atmosphere.

Despite no longer serving an official position, Yau's Hub does not end here. We still care deeply about the well-being of our school and are thinking of ways to engage with you all. This page will not cease to exist, but be used as a platform for us to communicate more of our thoughts. Keep following us!

Yours truly,

Yau's Hub
2017-18 CKY Student Society cabinet

~~~~~~~~~~~~

CKY的各位：

隨著新一屆學生會的誕生，有俠一年來的旅程也終於告一段落了。我們希望藉著這個機會，回顧一下我們這一短暫而充實的任期，同時表達我們五人的一點感悟。

首先，由衷恭喜CKY Ohana 蔡。回家當選為本屆的CKY學生會。從競選到當選，這一過程絕非易事，你們的成功必然是勇氣和實力的體現。我們相信並期望你們能超越我們，為CKY學生會立下新的里程碑，使整個學生群體更具活力。我們隨時都歡迎與你們相互分享作為學生會的經驗。

我們亦希望感謝我們的三位負責老師：Mr James Kuan, Ms Jennifer Chung 和 Ms Sabrina Tang這一年來全心全力的幫助和支持。我們每一項活動的成功都有賴你們披荊斬棘、竭盡所能，與我們一同跨過各道執行上的難關。你們對學生會的熱誠和投入絕對與我們不遑多讓。我們與你們每一次的討論都將成為我們一生中寶貴的經驗。

我們當然也必須感謝我們的extended committee。這一年來，面對我們大大小小的要求，你們從未推辭，總能帶給我們極大的幫助和驚喜。更難能可貴的是，你們的幫助是無償的，不是為了CV或功績，僅僅是出於熱誠和衝勁。你們的努力應當受到重視。沒有你們，我們不可能走得這麼遠。

最後，多謝CKY的所有學生對有俠的支持，亦希望你們能繼續支持新一屆的學生會。我們深知我們當初的許多承諾，最終都未能一一以大家所希望的形式兌現；但我們亦希望你們相信，我們在體制內竭力爭取過、妥協過、堅持過，始終有很多限制不能在一屆學生會的任期之間被改變。

亦因此，許多我們當初希望爭取或解決的議題，最終依然存在。CKY近年來成績斐然、譽徹全港，但內在依然有許多深層次的問題。這些問題多數都不是一介學子所能碰觸到的，但我們能做的是令學生的校園生活更有趣、更充實。我們無比遺憾，因為我們的活動未能使一些同學積極參與——對於他們而言，校園生活也許依然只是8點到4點的幾節課堂而已。同時，也是因為我們的校隊依然未得到充分的肯定；因為我們依然處於被動；因為我們仍然對學校缺乏歸屬感。這不僅僅是學生的問題，但我們所真正希望締造的是一個願景：在這個願景之中，所有學生都能由衷地、毫不尷尬地說他愛這所學校、說他希望這所學校更好，並且付諸實行。

雖然我們已不再是正式的學生會，但有俠的任務也不會在這裡終止。我們仍然關心這所學校，且會繼續與你們溝通。我們將以這個專頁向你們表達、傾訴更多的想法。請繼續支持有俠和本專頁！

有俠

[YAU'S HUB SPORTS TEAM MVP INTERVIEWS - JOSEPHINE FU]

隊伍：劍擊（女子）

簡介：
或許很多同學都不知道我校有劍擊隊的存在。但是，隊中多位成員在過去一年都有出戰學界賽事，為校爭光。Josephine 在學界九龍區 C Grade 花劍個人賽中取得了第十八名，成績未算太過突出。然而，她成功以練習時的表現打動帶隊老師，成為MVP。她被讚揚練習時態度認真，更展現了領導才能，為團隊帶來正面的氛圍。

訪問：

對於被選為呢項運動本年度的MVP，請問你有D咩感受？

對於這次被選為MVP 我感到非常驚訝，根本沒有想過自己會被當選。因為劍擊是一個非常罕見的運動，沒什麼人知道這個運動的存在，同時覺得自己的水準沒有達到一定的程度。所以我真的沒有想過自己會得獎。

相信要從咁多位競爭對手中脫穎而出，肯定唔容易，背後一定需要付出好多好多的努力與付出，請問係咩俾到你動力呢？

其實這些動力都是來至於我的隊友和教練。跟隊友之間有了競爭力，就會更努力去練習，去增強自己不足的地方。同時教練平時的教導和在賽場上的鼓勵，都成為了我的動力。

你從劍擊有何得著？

對於這項運動，我學到了很多。打劍擊不單單是手腳協調的運動，而是怎麼將看到對手的弱點，通過腦子裡的過濾後，用自己的方法打敗對手。我學的劍種是花劍，是有進攻權之分，而且有效部位只限於肩膀至腰部，所以我們打花劍的選手綜合能力都要非常強。這包括：體能、步伐的控制、劍尖的準程度...... 我們打劍的選手專注力要非常強，因為我們要控制好距離、要確保對方的劍不會刺到你、要給出反應...... 還有，打劍的時候不能急。你一心急，你就很容易失分，而且在當下你會更慌張， 不知道自己在幹嘛。 同時，情緒控制也非常重要。如果你那一場劍情緒能調整好，你那一場劍幾乎就是會贏。總括而言，我在這項運動中學到的不單單是技術上的知識，而是怎麼把自己的心理調整好。

對於學校方面的支援有什麼評價？

我希望學校可以多推廣這項運動，可以增加劍道給我們校隊使用。我覺得學校裡的大家都不知道有劍撃這項運動，我希望大家可以多注重和關注這項運動，同時鼓勵大家嘗試這項新的運動。

[YAU'S HUB SPORTS TEAM MVP INTERVIEWS - INGRID WONG]

Team: Basketball (Girls)

Overview:

The Girls Basketball Team had a successful year under the strong performance of its younger team members. They were Champions and 1st runner-up respectively in the HKSSF Division 3 (Kowloon Two) B Grade and C Grade competitions. They ranked 2nd overall in the area, narrowly missing out on promotion. Ingrid, a core member of the B Grade Team, was chosen as MVP for her effort in training and leadership abilities. She was able to act as team leader on the court, and also help junior teammates improve their skills, contributing to the team's success.

Interview:

What are your initial thoughts to be selected as a sports team MVP?

I was shocked and surprised.

What motivates you to work for excellence in your sport?

To get better and play professionally

What have you learnt from playing sport?

I have learnt to trust others more and how to communicate with others better.


How do you feel about the school’s support to your team?

I think that the school’s support has been great but include more sports-related extracurricular activities instead of academic activities.

Your team was champion of the Division Three B grade competition. How do you feel about that?

I think that this proves that we could win this, given our past reputation of losing badly.

What are the difficulties of being a team leader?

To be able to consistently do well.

[YAU'S HUB SPORTS TEAM MVP INTERVIEWS - ANSON NG]

Team: Volleyball (Boys)

Overview:

The boy's Volleyball Team made respectable showings at various tournaments during its first year of existence. The C Grade team became CKY's first to participate in the HKSSF 5-a-side competition, despite losing all of their competitive matches in Division 2 (Kowloon). However, there were more encouraging results from the discipline of Beach Volleyball, with both the A Grade and BC Grade teams breaking to the Round of 16 in the HKSSF Division 2 competition, contributing to an overall 9th place. Anson was chosen to be the MVP due to his excellent work as Captain, including his guidance to new team members and help in the organisation of team activities. Overall, he was praised as a good role model for team members to follow.

Interview:

What are your initial thoughts to be selected as a sports team MVP?

I am so grateful to receive such an award and I need to thank Ms Au, coach and teammates for giving me endless opportunities and support.

What motivates you to work for excellence in Volleyball?

The main motivation comes from my passion for volleyball. When you love something so much you’d eventually pour your heart into it and do your very best to make it perfect. Another reason I’d work so hard for the team is for my teammates (brothers). When all of us developed a really special bond, it makes it comfortable and fun during training sessions for each and everyone.

What have you learnt from playing sport?

I’ve learnt that you need to be encouraging and supportive in order to play this sport. Volleyball is a team sport and the team’s performance heavily relies on each player’s ability to play at a high level. The sport is both physically and mentally demanding, if we don’t work as a team, we’ll never reach our goal (champion). Lastly, I would say communication between teammates is the most vital element for this sport. Sometimes the communication between us determines the whole game e.g if you don’t speak up or remind your teammates, your team will probably lose the match. On the other hand, if everyone communicates and remind each other, there’s a high chance that we will win the match.

How do you feel about the school’s support to your team?

I mean it’s technically the first year for the boy's volleyball team, but all of us can feel the love and support from VP lam, Ms Au and the girl's volleyball team. Supposedly, we only have 1 training session each week. Due to the A grade beach volleyball team’s generosity, we now have 2 training sessions per week. This makes a huge difference for all of us as we get to practice more, leading us to success!

Volleyball is far less popular among boys than girls in Hong Kong, what drove you to play volleyball?

The reason I started playing volleyball is entirely because of my cousin’s interest in volleyball. If it wasn’t her, I wouldn’t be playing volleyball too. She’s a part of the Hong Kong girl’s beach volleyball team and I am so lucky to have her as my guidance and a side coach. Nevertheless, I have to express my gratitude especially towards Ms.Au, VP Lam, Venus Yeung, Venus Lam, Michael Chan, Julius Lam and Charis Fung, they’re the ones who made me who I am today, thank you🤪

What are your expectations for the team next year?

I hope everybody will do their best next year and reach their fullest potential. Bye 👋🏻

[YAU'S HUB SPORTS TEAM MVP INTERVIEWS - MEGAN SHING]

Team: Ultimate (Frisbee)*

Overview:
The Frisbee Team award was intended for the sole best individual of the unique mixed-gender team, but outstanding performances from multiple players has led to the special decision that the Frisbee Team award os to be shared among two individuals. One of them is Megan Shing, being praised for her concentration during training and ability to help her teammates raise their performance. She helped the team to 3rd place in the HKIS tournament, the best showing of the Frisbee Team this year.

Interview:

How do you feel about being chosen as this year’s MVP for frisbee?

Being chosen as MVP this year was mostly surprising as I found out that I was chosen right before the ceremony, and I would’ve never expected to be chosen as MVP among all our brilliant players.


What is your motivation when playing frisbee that allowed you to stand out from other players?

When it comes to technical skills and playing in matches, I believe that I don’t really stand out from other players. The main motivation that has allowed me to “stand out” from other players is probably my attitude towards playing the game. Although Frisbee is a very competitive sport, Frisbee Spirit is still a big part of the game. My main motivation was to remain positive and enjoy having fun while playing in a match.


What have you gained from playing frisbee?

Besides new Frisbee techniques and tactics, playing Frisbee has mainly strengthened the idea of team spirit and Frisbee spirit in general. I believe that playing Frisbee has brought our team together as well as bringing us closer to the other teams that we played against.


How do you feel about the school’s support for frisbee?

I believe that the school has offered Frisbee some support, as in promoting the sport through opening up the football field, the indoor gym, as well as organizing the inter-house Frisbee tournament. As for improvement, perhaps the school can find a place where we can play Frisbee in recess and lunch. At the moment, any people who would like to play Frisbee in recess and lunch would have to play in the basketball court, sharing the court with basketball players. It would be great if the school can find a place for us to play Frisbee without needing to share a court with the basketball players, as it is partially dangerous and decreases space for both Frisbee and basketball players.


Before joining the school team, have you played frisbee competitively? Did that affect your approach to playing this sport?

Before joining the school team, I’ve not played Frisbee besides with my classmates and at the inter-house Frisbee tournament. As I haven’t been playing Frisbee competitively before joining the school team, it didn’t affect my approach on playing this sport very much.

Presumably, you are one of the younger members of the team; was this a challenge when you worked as the vice-captain?

I expected that being a spirit captain would be way more stressful than it was. Since I’m not the best at talking during spirit circles, I was nervous to say the least.

*Note: Though many refer to the sport as Frisbee, it is a registered trademark of the Wham-O Company and not intended for such use. The official name of the sport is therefore Ultimate to avoid copyright infringements. However, the name Frisbee is used in this article as it is commonly known among the school community.

[YAU'S HUB SPORTS TEAM MVP INTERVIEWS - MEKU MAK]

隊伍：欖球（女子）

簡介：
女子欖球隊在過去一年獲得不俗的成績。 Meku 所在的 C Grade 隊成功打入全港學界七人欖球賽的決賽周，並在盾賽獲得亞軍而名列全港第八。同時，她們亦在 HKYC 2018 非撞式欖球賽中獲得季軍，總結成功的一年。成為 MVP 的 Meku 被教練稱讚富有紀律性，聽從教練和隊長的指令，為球隊帶來正面的影響。

訪問：

對於被選為該項運動的 MVP，請問你有什麼感受？

我被選為今年的 Rugby MVP 其實真的好驚訝。因為我是玩田徑的，當初在小學時開始打 Rugby 都是因為我跑得快，而且我也是第一年開始打 Try Rugby。

相信要從咁多位競爭對手脫穎而出，肯定不容易，背後一定需要付出很多努力與付出。你的動力來源在哪？

我在打 Try Rugby 時的動力就是想有多一點比賽。我就是因為想打多一點 Rugby，而努力練習，贏得比賽。

你從 Rugby 這項運動之中，學到了些什麼？從中又有什麼得著？

我在打 Rugby 時，學到團隊合作。我之前是玩田徑，所以沒有什麼團隊精神，但打 Rugby 時不同。如果你被對手用假動作騙了，你的隊友會過來幫你，掩護你。
我打 Rugby 時，很高興，很想繼續打下去。

[YAU'S HUB SPORTS TEAM MVP INTERVIEWS - OSCAR CHAN]

隊伍：足球（男子）

簡介：

來自八年級的 Oscar，成功擊敗一眾高年級隊友而獲選為足球隊的最有價值隊員。在提名表格中，足球隊的負責老師直指 Oscar 能夠達到獎項的所有準則，是獲獎的不二人選。同時兼顧區隊（南區）和學界比賽之下，Oscar 依然能夠協助 C Grade 校隊打入學界 D3（九龍二區）的八強，令足球隊整體在該區奪得總季軍。

訪問：

對於獲獎有何感受？

一開始都冇諗過會被選做足球隊 MVP，因為我覺得自己能力其實唔太高，仲要當 MVP 係喺全校中學部選出嚟嘅時候，我覺得自己攞嘅機會係零。得到呢個 MVP 獎真係令我好驚訝。

相信你為足球付出了很多努力。你是如何找到動力？

做任何事嘅時候，總會有一啲動力令自己進步，令自己放膽去嘗試，踢波都唔例外。推動到我嘅一定係家人同朋友嘅支持，無時無刻都會鼓勵我。最重要嘅其實係球隊中嘅競爭力，除咗校隊之外，我都有參加區隊（南區）。南區入面有好多技術好嘅球員，爭取正選嘅過程中係我最大嘅動力去想進步同表現好。

踢足球令你有什麼得著？

運動有好多種，例如足球、籃球、游水。游水可以係一樣個人運動，以個人技術取勝。但係從足球入面，學習到嘅唔單止係個人技術，仲有非常重要嘅合作能力同埋溝通能力。踢足球唔同游水跑步，一支球隊有11個人，一名球員係戰勝唔到一支11人嘅隊伍。所以團體運動最需要嘅係合作，11個球員，唔同嘅崗位，但同一個目標，得到勝利。
踢波仲教到我有時候要接受一啲自己唔鍾意嘅事，而唔好投訴或抱怨。如果我可以選擇，我希望可以做一個中場嘅位置，但係喺我踢波嘅生涯之中，暫時我都未踢過中場呢一個位置。上年南區U13嘅比賽中試過以前鋒同後衛嘅位置上陣，今年校隊同南區都係做一個後衛嘅位置。我認為教練做出嘅決定都係為球隊著想，所以我會接受任何位置或崗位，當係一個挑戰，令自己進步。

有沒有一些有趣的事件可以分享一下？

有趣嘅事一定係今年校隊嘅入球。我以為自己踢後衛（last man）就一定冇波入，唔好話有冇波入，連射波嘅機會我都唔知有冇。但係喺其中一場小組賽入面，我在中場線亂踢皮球到前場，最後龍門甩手入波。雖然好”符碌”，但係嗰一刻好開心。

對於學校對足球隊的支援，你有什麼評價？

學校對足球隊嘅期望一向都唔高，因為我地做出嘅成績唔似泳隊、排球隊、籃球隊咁好。而我相信呢個就係點解學校唔太比資源我地足球隊。例如學校足球場其實唔太完整，球衣其實唔適合踢波，太厚太重。

你在得獎感言中特別鳴謝了球隊負責老師 Mr Derek Lee，他對你有什麼影響？

Mr Derek Lee 無論喺比賽或訓練當中都比咗好大嘅鼓勵我，令我自信心提高，更加有勇氣去嘗試。學界一場比賽，校隊教練陳sir話我做嘅決定差，做得唔好嘅時候，Mr Lee 反而同我講我應該繼續我自己嘅踢法。所以Mr Lee 係其中一個重要人物令我成功。

明年對自己有什麼目標？

下年嘅目標係希望可以繼續喺南區做正選。想自己喺足球方面繼續發展，繼續進步。

[YAU'S HUB SPORTS TEAM MVP INTERVIEWS - BRYAN SHIN]

Team: Table Tennis (Boys)

Overview:
Bryan was praised as a hard-working and positive team member during training, and was able to maintain a high attendance rate despite his academic workload. These led to his selection as the MVP of the boys' Table Tennis Team as a relatively inexperienced team member, playing Table Tennis only since Year 6. Over the past year, he has helped the team become champions in the HKSSF Division Three (Kowloon One) A Grade competition and come second in the overall competition, narrowly missing promotion.

Interview:

What are your initial thoughts to be selected as a sports team MVP?

I was quite surprised to be selected as a sports team MVP, I did not anticipate it at all.

What motivates you to work for excellence in your sport?

I started playing table tennis in year 6 because my friend played table tennis, so I joined him in training sessions and started picking up the basic table tennis skills. Initially, I didn’t want to work for excellence as I was only chosen into the school team as a backup player, there wasn’t much motivation. However, it all changed when I played in my first ever inter-school table tennis competition; losing all my matches motivated me to do better next year. So I started treating Table Tennis more seriously.

What have you learnt from playing your sport?

There were many situations in competitions where I was 1 or 2 points away from losing the whole match. I have learnt to not give up easily in these situations as there was a possibility of coming back to win the match. Also, I have learnt to be adaptable; a tactic might work for one opponent but not others. Therefore I have learned to always change my tactics, depending on my opponent, in a game even though I might not be comfortable with it.

How do you feel about the school’s support to your team

There was sufficient support for the school team in terms of the resources; we were able to use adequate tables, updated and new table tennis balls, and most importantly being able to use the lecture theatre as our venue for training; many local clubs, schools do not have such a big training space. Training sessions are frequent as well as there are sessions throughout the whole academic year and even during summer.

Your coach mentioned your high attendance rate. As an IB student, how are you able to balance sports and academics?

Usually, I try to finish all my academic work after training at home and to not procrastinate, sometimes I finish work in advance to reduce my workload in the future.

You started table tennis only from year 6. As a late starter, how do you catch up with your peer’s level?

I think learning from losing competitions makes me improve faster as I can analyse my weaknesses and learn from my opponents. Playing in more competitions also makes me exposed to a greater variety of opponents with various playing styles.

[YAU'S HUB SPORTS TEAM MVP INTERVIEWS - EMILY WONG]

Team: Table Tennis (Girls)

Overview:

The first MVP in our series is also the youngest of them. As the only Year 6 MVP, she was selected ahead of her elder teammates due to her high attendance to training, and by a serious and positive attitude to her performance. Her major achievement in the year is the qualification to the main draw of the Hang Seng All-Schools Championship girls singles competition. Unfortunately, the C Grade team had to withdraw from the HKSSF Division 2 Competition, and as a result they will return to Division 3 next year.

Interview:

What are your initial thoughts to be selected as a sports team MVP?

My initial thoughts to be selected as a sports team MVP is that I was very shocked and surprised because I never thought of having this award. I was also very glad that the table tennis team coach appreciated my hard work.

What motivates you to work for excellence in your sport?

I am always interested in playing Table Tennis. For me, this is not just a sport, but also a hobby that I find joy from. As I play continuously, my level naturally improves.

What have you learnt from playing sport?

My Table Tennis coaches taught me not to be over-confident and arrogant when I win, but to be humble to everyone. They have also taught me not to be afraid when playing opponents considered superior to me, and never give up.

Any Interesting incdents to share?

The interesting incident I want to share when playing table tennis is when I had to perform table tennis with my teammates on the stage during open day. I had never performed table tennis on the stage and was very energetic and excited to play table tennis during open day. I had to run around the table making sure not to drop the ball on to the ground. It was very fun. Despite that I had to perform on stage in front of many people, I had enjoyed it very much.

How do you feel about school support to your team?

I was very grateful that the school has strongly supported table tennis team by letting the whole table tennis team perform on the stage during open day, which had made us increase our confidence in playing table tennis.

你的教練說過你有一套獨特的打法。這對你的表現有甚麼影響？

我打乒乓球的方法確實與眾不同，令對方很難知道我打的是什麼打法。這是因為我用的球拍是長膠，用長膠打乒乓球打法跟平膠的打法不同，才能令我騙過對手，並獲勝。這都要謝謝教練介紹長膠的球拍給我，令我打乒乓球愈打愈順，球技也提升了不少。

你對明年有什麼期望？

下一年，我對自己的期望是我可以在不同的比賽中拿到理想的成績和在打乒兵球有更加明顯的進步。
